Magic and movement

The Gymnaestrada in Lausanne, the largest gymnastics festival in the world, is underway.


Thousands of gymnasts from around the world have been meeting regularly since 1953. The 14th Gymnaestrada takes place from July 10-16 under the motto: “Meet the Magic”. There are no points or rankings. What is more important is meeting other people and the joy of movement. (Pictures: Christoph Balsiger, swissinfo.ch)
